#60YearsAgo today the final test of the Saturn I's first stage, Saturn SA-4, launched from @NASAKennedy. The uncrewed suborbital test flight was successful, paving the way for tests of the second stage.

#60YearsAgo… Chubby Checker was teaching us yet another new dance. Actually, does the limbo count as a dance? Or it is more like a reverse high jump? Why isn’t the limbo in the Olympics?

So far Chubby had taught the world The Twist, The Hucklebuck, The Pony, The Twist (again!), The Fly & Slow Twist. That’s an insane number of dances!
“Limbo Rock” is a charming little cha-cha that repeats the word “limbo” until it loses all meaning, and it’s a 7.
